What is nodejs-poolController-dashPanel?

dashPanel is a controller designed to operate using a nodejs-poolController server backend. You will need to set up your nodejs-poolController server and have it communicating with your pool equipment prior to setting up this server. Once you have done that you can set up the dashPanel to communicate with that server.

While this project was originally developed using an IntelliCenter control panel it should operate equally well with an IntelliTouch or EasyTouch control panel.

Configuring the dashPanel

To configure the dashPanel you need to place the url for your nodejs-poolController server in the configuration. Click the bars menu on the top left of the screen and fill in the ip address and port. Then press the Apply button. If this button is grayed out you will need to edit the config.json file manually and enter the settings under the services menu.

What is Message Manager?

Message manager allows you to inspect your RS485 communication coming from and going to the nodejs-poolController server. This tool decodes the messages and displays them in a manner where important chatter on the RS485 connection can be decoded while eliminating the chatter that don't matter. Special filters can be applied to reduce the information to only the items you are interested in.
